background and aims. one of the most common reasons for the inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia failure is the variation in mandibular foramen location. the aim of this study was to assess the location of mandibular foramen in children with mandibular retrognathism in comparison to children with normal skeletal occlusion in the mixed dentition. materials and methods. one hundred and twenty...

conclusions in this study, use of one miniplate or two miniplates for treatment of favorable mandibular angle fractures was associated with a similar incidence of complications. thus, it seems that the use of two miniplates in this setting may not be warranted, nor cost-efficient. results in the single miniplate group, 25 patients showed lip numbness associated with surgery (55.6%), 22 patients...

BACKGROUND Fractures of the mandibular angle are common and comprise 31% of all mandibular fractures. Multiple recent studies report a 2-3 fold increased risk for mandibular angle fractures when un-erupted mandibular third molars are present. The objective of this study was to assess the frequency of un-erupted mandibular third molar in mandibular angle fractures. METHODS This cross-sectional...

Human mandibular premolars have earned the reputation for having an extremely complex root and root canal morphology. The incidence of multiple roots and canals in mandibular second premolars is lower than those in mandibular first premolars. Mandibular second premolars with three root canals and separate foramina are very rare. In this case report, endodontic management of a three-rooted mandi...

Forty-five patients with mandibular retrognathism treated by surgical mandibular advancement by sagittal split osteotomies were evaluated cephalometrically before treatment at the intermaxillary fixation release, and 6 months postoperatively. The treatment resulted in appreciable improvement of the mandibular retrognathism, and the facial morphology was changed positively toward normal values. ...

Abstract Mandibular resection is a procedure to treat diseases or disorders of the mandible. Mandibulectomy indicated for involving Plate exposure common postoperative complication mandibular followed by reconstruction with plate fixation. Objective: This study was obtain data regarding number exposed cases after madibular indications ameloblastoma at KSM Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, RSUP Dr...

Background: Mandibular ramus undergoes remodelling with time. The remodeling is also influenced by factors such as ageing, dental status, gender, stress, trauma, force exerted during occlusion, and joint diseases. Studies have reported variations in morphology of coronoid process, condylar sigmoid notch the mandible. Objectives: To assess morphological processes mandible a tertiary care centre ...

Objective: Mandibular foramen is an important anatomical landmark for the inferior alveolar nerve blocks, mandibular osteotomies and implant treatment. A thorough knowledge of the anatomy of the mandibular foramen is very essential hence this study aims to determine the position of the mandibular foramen and incidence of accessory mandibular foramen in south Indian population. Material and meth...

The main objective of endodontic therapy is the thorough mechanical and chemical cleansing of the entire root canal system and its complete obturation with an inert filling material. Failure to find and fill a canal contributes toward the failure of endodontic therapy .The root canal anatomy of mandibular first molars is complex. Studies of the morphologic structure of root canal systems hav...
